In July of 2011, the Henry P. Kendall Foundation launched its new regional food systems program. Since then, we have been actively partnering with the organizations, networks and leaders who are working on rebuilding a healthy food system in New England. The work and thinking of these leaders and other national experts has informed the formulation of a strategy for the Kendall Foundation’s grantmaking.
We are inspired by the New England Food Vision for 2060, articulated by regional thinkers and practitioners and released by Food Solutions New England in 2014. The vision puts a stake in the ground that by the year 2060, 50% of the food eaten here will be produced here, and done so in a way that supports healthy food for all, sustainable farming and fishing and thriving communities. We think there is real value in a shared vision that can serve as motivation and provide a shared direction for our collective efforts.
We look at the region and the food system as a whole, recognizing that many complementary strategies and tactics are required to create lasting change. Our aim is to work collaboratively with grantees, other funders and public and private sector partners toward this vision. We acknowledge that many inspiring examples exist in this region and we seek to complement these efforts in a way that leads to a well-coordinated and connected region.
Our primary areas of focus are Farm to School and Regional Movement Building.
